Benefits of technology

The technical purpose described in this patented design for a wearables product includes providing a light source inside it while also being able to adjust its brightness accordingly according to how well people are wearing them comfortably. This allows users who want their safety without worry about approaching too much when they don't have enough sleep before going outside. Additionally, there may include various sensors attached to these products such as movement detection systems (MOS) and heart rate monitoring equipment. These data help create customized patterns of lights tailored specifically towards specific individuals during times of darkness.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent is the need for a wearable device that provides a powered illumination device that can provide a variable illumination pattern based on the motion of the wearer to increase visibility of the wearer. Additionally, the device should provide multiple stimulating devices that are pleasurable for the wearer and can alert the wearer when the device is not functioning adequately. The device should also provide feedback to the wearer that the power source is adequate to operate all the stimulus devices of the wearable item.

Abstract

The present device is a stimulating wearable item that provides safety and entertainment benefits to the wearer. The device includes a wearable item, preferably a backpack, a stimulus control system, and at least one stimulus means. The stimulus control system includes a controller, a motion sensor and at least one power source. Each stimulus means is electrically connected to the stimulus control system. When the controller detects movement of the wearable item through the motion sensor, the stimulus control system activates the at least one stimulus means. The at least one stimulus means includes different stimulus means, such as a noise means, a vibration means, or an illumination means. The stimulating wearable item uses multiple stimulating means to increase the profile of the wearer and is enjoyable to wear to encourage frequent use. The device also allows for easy changing of the stimulus means as desired.
